high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 408032

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

 - GStreamer PGS File Parsing Heap-based Buffer Overflow Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This
 vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of GStreamer.
 Interaction with this library is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary
 depending on the implementation. The specific flaw exists within the parsing of PGS subtitle files. The
 issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it
 to a heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the
 current process. . Was ZDI-CAN-20994. (CVE-2023-37328)
